Wadia S7i direct to amp

thank you Kucharsk.

Just a heads up, which I cannot believe. Both Frost Audio and The Great Northern Sound Company have closed their doors right after I bought their products. Talk about picking some winners! At least I am stuck with outstanding products.

I just purchased my S7i. I'm running direct into my monoblocs. I can't add much to this forum since it's not broken in yet,still waiting to connect unbalanced (XLO Sig 3. -any comments?)and no Pre-Amp sessions but.... Right out of the box this is a FABULOUS CDP !!! I've been an audiophile for over 30 years and this may be THE best piece of eqp. I have purchased to date. Will add more info. once I'm all set up. AGAIN...GREAT CDP Worth every penny!!!

In my opinion all Wadia's sound best running direct to the amp using a balanced approach. Congrats on the new Wadia purchase. It's a fantastic company and products!

Question regarding Wadia s7i Direct to amp connection -
Has anyone that was operating in the "Correct" output range 75-100 boosted the output? Depending on the level the cd was recorded at there are times when I wish I could go to 112 or so. Also...if you did increase the output to compensate for the lower cd levels what did it do to the higher level cd's- Did the lower end (Bass) increase because of the higher output voltage or was it that what used to be played at say 100 sounds the same as 88 after the increase.

BTW...Now that my s7i is fully broken in it's even more incredible!!! Love it!! - (using XLO sig3 bal to Bryston 7BST mono's.)
